At least we're not UConn v2022

Probably Myrtle Beach. Nice accomplishment for that program.

Hope Marshall smokes them. They are a delusional fan base.

Not bad for UCONN. They get additional practices and a warmer weather bowl. Also, the players can be home for Christmas.

SU gets the additional practices, but a cold weather bowl. Not sure where the players will be for Christmas.

I dislike UConn, but I love a good underdog story...It's hard not to route for a team like UConn this year, well, unless it was Rutgers. I'd never route for this dipwads.

This is true until you spend time with some UConn fans. That sentiment fades very quickly.

lol. I actually have met a UConn fan down here in Houston years ago. Decent enough guy. I also met Jake Voskuhl in a gym down here (he grew up and went to school in my area) one summer. Very nice dude. Wasn't 7' though, that's for sure.

Did he get a bonus for each month he was in Florida?

Wow you found one haha. My experience has been much the opposite

We all knew he was a douche. I have personal knowledge of his a$$holishness, but it's nice to have public proof.

 

[Millhouse]

him prancing around like a jackass and sorta shoving the kid who got in the way tells you everything you need to know about that guy

but he threw a pass here that ended up as a touchdown ... for the other team... and we had a thousand people go to bat for him to be our coach

Edsall is just not a good person.

I hate uconn still but their situation in football entering this year was pretty extreme. People were telling them to literally shut down the program and there were nasty op eds in newspapers to that extent. Now being in a major conference isn't like pro sports where the worst team gets the 1st pick but you have some sort of continuity they didn't and just scheduling 12 games isn't a given if you don't want to play 8 roadies and 4 home games. To crawl out of that is impressive Umass had longer and hasn't done it or come close even once and I think they lost to them last year. Going forward for next year as a fan I'd much rather play whatever independent schedule they come up with than be in the AAC after all those teams left for the Big 12 I think its better overall and only 1 roadie where you are expected to lose by 50 for a paycheck.

FB program was also sacrificed to save hoops and clearly it worked Wright left Nova and no one is close to them in the NBE.

UCon should still shut down their program. Go out on top.

We already routed them earlier this year

Once Mora leaves they’ll be back to where they were.

If he makes it to 7-5 in 2023 then he'll likely be movin' on...

Such a HUGE testament to how monumental good coaching is. In my opinion, the job he did in getting his team to a bowl game, especially with all the head winds this program faces, etc. is truly astonishing.

My favorite part of the article
"After the Huskies lost four of their first five games this season — all to far superior teams, including Michigan, N.C. State and Syracuse — UConn won four of its next five"

This is not good news for UConn.

For those without access, the article says the league is telling ACC schools to stop playing games on the road against non P5 opponents. The only exception to this?

Interesting for Phillips to invoke TV as part of his ask. Obviously it's the home team that determines the broadcast rights for a game. Traveling to P5 opponents means potentially improving inventory for networks that compete with the ACC's media partner. I guess he's valuing the home-and-home aspect, which then improves the ACC's inventory. Just a weird way to frame it.

Regardless, it's going to be increasingly difficult for UConn to schedule P5 home games going forward.

Interesting- anything about HBCU's as well? I would imagine that is going to be brought up around this... even if it's just road games.

Are all HBCUs at the FCS level? I imagine there's not many ACC teams making trips to HBCU stadiums, but I certainly could be wrong.
